Distinct Voice

After visiting my Guru Sri Chinmoy in New York, I got extremely sick for two days. I could not keep down any food or liquid, but the worst part was the stabbing pain, which would not let me sleep. On the second day I heard a distinct voice which said, “You do not have to suffer any more.” It was sweet, consoling, and at the same time a direct voice. I sat up and began repeating “Guru, Guru, Guru.” I placed my hand on the area that was hurting and a pale green light blossomed there. I saw delicate, Heavenly green flowers blossoming where the pain was, and at the same time I was flooded with self-giving humility. Then the same voice said, “Take some prasad.” My prasad was lying on the table, but it was citrus fruit, which I thought would be horrible for my condition, so I didn’t take it at first. The second time I heard the distinct voice repeat its message, I took a little piece of orange and ate it. All the pain disappeared instantly. Then I felt wave after wave of Guru’s blessings.
